Diane, you mean you do some application tests via tools like mercury winrunner, rational robot & co VIA vnc or do you just remote control the PCs which are running the apps and the test-software ? If the first variant is the case - I didn`t know, that such thing works through a "dumb" remote-control software.Since vnc for windows has many problems regarding refreshing the right screen areas(especially java apps) I really would wonder, if you can use that for automated testing. (for more reliable screen refresh see www.ultravnc.com)
If it`s the latter(just remote controlling) , then you shouldn`t have ANY problem - because remote control via vnc is just as sitting in front of the screen. regards roland > svndagen den 30 mars 2003 20:40 skrev Diane Fahr: > Here is the problem I have encountered.
